Isabelle Volpe is a PhD candidate in the Drug Policy Modelling Program team at the Social Policy Research Centre. Her PhD research draws on critical social science approaches to explore whether and how alternative ways of doing 鈥榩articipation鈥 can open up new ways of thinking about complex policy problems relating to young people and drugs.

Alongside her PhD, Isabelle鈥檚 recent research and practice have focused on the communication of harm reduction information, especially relating to drug alerts and drug checking services. Isabelle has previously conducted mixed-methods drug treatment research including clinical trials, treatment guidelines, government-commissioned policy reviews, and designing health promotion interventions.

Isabelle currently works with The Loop Australia and volunteers with Dancewize NSW to provide drug harm reduction services at music festivals. She also serves as a member of the Early- to Mid-Career Researchers Subcommittee of the Australasian Professional Society on Alcohol and other Drugs (APSAD).
